some people are worth melting for

Every birthday party I have prepared for my littles there is a specific "awe" moment that make all the prep for their party worth it. For Presli it was after she had walked into the house after swimming with dad. I was decorating and had just put the lights up. She walked in and her jaw dropped as she jumped and squealed like little girls do.

 Our family loves to party and that is not an understatement. Any excuse to get together and make memories and share the love....you bet we are in.  I just might really enjoy all the prep work along with the response...kind of like giving a gift. Maybe it's my "love language" showing people I love them by doing stuff for them. Somebody can tell me they love me all day, but "actions speak louder than words."

 

I guess you could say that we love our sweet, spunky, nurturing, smart, 4yr old- Presli!

 

 She woke up the morning of her party not feeling great, but she was determined to feel better because she wanted to be sung to. Her very own birthday song at her party and on her birthday is the main thing she has been looking forward to....sweet girl!

 We have so many loving and supportive family and friends!

 "Our Brazil snow" as the kids called it was a hit! A mess...but a hit. They couldn't get enough.

 Presli has always been very independent from the day she was born. She came when she wanted. A few days before my induction date, the day after Thanksgiving. She is still very independent yet extremely nurturing. I am so proud of our sweet little girl and all of her spunk. She is quite shy and quiet, but observes more than you would believe and will reiterate all she has absorbed. She has adjusted well to Brazil and is picking up on Portuguese better than me. I hope she has felt as special as she really is. We Love you our little angel!
